Age of Conan Director's letter for October

The October Director's letter for Age of Conan has been released, and it looks like the AoC team is continuing to seek player support and suggestions for improvement. The increase in player questionnaires and surveys will continue in an effort to get feedback from fans, as will weekly updates from the community teams to keep players informed of what's happening. They're also working for increased player interaction by seeking more members for the volunteer program and continuing the recruit-a-friend program.

The big news, as always, was the upcoming update. The 1.05 cycle is coming to an end and the 1.06 cycle is in the works, with the hope that it will hit the test servers in the next few weeks. The Director's letter gave a few hints as to what to look for in 1.06: "We are now focusing on the new Guild Renown feature and the new Tier Three raids encounters. We will be running several initiatives one the test servers during the testing to ensure you get your chance to have your say!"

The full letter can be seen on the official site.

Good luck to them! A lot of players have it in for funcom and age of conan, myself i enjoyed the game and congratulate it for pushing boundaries. As a PvE player AoC is a breath of fresh air in an all to often stale genre.

That's not to say the game doesn't have it's faults, it does. But at the risk of being dubbed an AoC fanboy I feel too many people don't recognise the contribution AoC has made to this genre.

What's the most active PvE server? I like PvP, but I'd rather it be consensual :)

Funcom is gathering opinions from their players via surveys? That's nice to see. I hope more MMO dev teams do this. In the handful of MMOs I've subscribed to I've never been asked to take a survey about the game, and yet I've seen patch after patch that claims to fix something based on "player feedback". Where are they getting this feedback? From the over-wrought knee-jerk troll-v.-fanboi forums!
